MYP3 Unit 4 – Visualizing Equations

E. Introduction to Simultaneous Equations (Chapter 15A)

How do we find the location of the point where 2 or more lines cross?

Warmup:

a) Show algebraically that (2, 3) satisfies both y = 2x – 1 and y = 3x – 3.

b) Graph each line from a) and label the point of intersection.

Simultaneous means at the same time.

E.1 Trial and Error (Chapter 15A)

Trial and error is a method that involves testing possible solutions until the correct answer is
found. The solutions you test should be logical and organized to keep track of your attempts.
